Robin has always harboured a secret desire to be a detective, and she was studying psychology before a traumatic event sent her life off the rails during university.

BBC announced adapting Galbraith’s Strike series for TV in 2016. The first season premiered in August 2017 starring Tom Burke as Cormoran Strike and Holliday Grainger as Robin Ellacott. Perhaps just as much as the mystery, the tension and will-they-won’t-they between Strike and Robin has kept fans hooked. For those who love crime fiction, the Cormoran Strike novel series will keep you entertained throughout. The story revolves around detective Cormoran Strike. He is a retired military soldier who is broke and wounded when he starts a PI company. Robin and Strike are hired to investigate a cult: the Universal Humanitarian Church. Their client's autistic son, Will, has lived in their grounds for four years, emptying his trust fund into their accounts and not even leaving for his mother's funeral. Rowling’s first novel, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, was published in 1997. J.K. Rowling did not publish any books for adults until she published The Casual Vacancy in 2011 under her own name which was received with mixed reactions. Strike's personal life is complicated. He has just split from his long term partner and fiancée, Charlotte Campbell, who immediately marries another man. He is closest to his half-sister Lucy (his mother's second child), with whom he grew up, though he has seven other half-siblings (the other children of Rokeby) and one half-brother who is the son of his mother and her last husband Jeff Whittaker. Even his relationship with Lucy is somewhat fraught, and Strike finds himself becoming closer to Robin, who has always wanted to be a detective, than he at first feels entirely comfortable with.

The fifth case, Troubled Blood, began filming not too long ago, and is expected to air on BBC One sometime in 2022/23. International distribution and dates are currently unknown, but it seems likely to end up on HBO Max in the US, given that they have the rights to the previous episodes.Where Can I Watch the “CB Strike” TV Series?
